  • A tablespoon here is the 15 ml metric standard, about 16.67 to a metric cup, the same size as a UK tablespoon. A US tablespoon is smaller at 14.79 ml, so US cooks measuring with US spoons need slightly more. An Australian tablespoon is larger at 20 ml, so it holds about a third more.

  • One metric tablespoon of penne weighs about 6.6 grams. A US tablespoon (14.79 ml) holds about 6.5 grams and an Australian tablespoon (20 ml) about 8.8 grams.
  • Over about 150 g of penne is more than a cup, so a cup measure is quicker than counting out tablespoons. One metric cup of penne is 16.67 tablespoons and weighs 110 g. Use the cups converter instead →
  • A little over or under won't ruin the bake, though it can nudge the final taste or colour.
  • These figures are for dry, uncooked penne. Cooked, it roughly doubles in volume as the tubes fill with water, so one cup of dry penne yields close to two cups cooked. Weigh dry for the most reliable result.

Penne is a straight tube pasta cut on an angle at each end, popular in baked pasta dishes, arrabbiata, and creamy sauces. One metric cup (250 ml) of dry penne weighs around 110 grams or 3.88 ounces. When a recipe gives penne in cups but you are scooping from a bag, converting by weight keeps the portion right.

Penne tubes are long and hollow, so they pile into a cup unevenly with large gaps. Weighing in grams sidesteps that guesswork and gives you the same portion every time.
